It blows my mind that people are willing to go through all the bs to avoid paying for premium connectivity; Yet they'll spend $100 no problem on shit they'll never actually use lol

[@appletech9535]

Real talk! I was just thinking about that today lol…I’m like it’s just $100 for the year..that’s dirt cheap lol

[@junaidx]

I think people just wish it was free for a year or so with a new purchase. But yeah really doubt that anyone paying 40k for a car will care too much about 100 a year

[@zayyy8100]

They probably spend way more than that on eating out every month lol

[@SimonBrisbane]

What people spend their money on is their business. If people don’t want to pay for premium connectivity it’s obviously because they don’t see value in it.

[@hobobbobho]

I didn’t even think about it. Paid for a year the day I picked up the car and with how much I use it I can’t imagine not having it

[@stringfellowhawk4843]

"You're probably the family tech support person". Most true statement I've heard today.

[@JamesTaylor3rd]

My electric company has a default flat-rate plan, but their "night's and weekends" plan (which is recommended for EV owners) lowers super-off-peak (12am-6am) to roughly 30% of that flat rate and off-peak to about 80%, but increases peak (4pm-8pm) to about 250%. I stayed on the flat-rate plan, but charged at what would be the super-off-peak time for a month, then downloaded the usage data so I could throw it into a speadsheet and do a comparison. I was honestly doing this because I wanted to see how much I'd be saving once I switched to the N/W plan. What I never expected was that, as it turns out, the flat-rate plan was actually cheaper! Yes, the N/W plan would mean that it'd cost me only 1/3 as much to charge my EV, but even my family's relatively moderate usage during peak time was more than enough to offset it. The moral: Take the time to do a comparison, and go with what makes sense for your specific usage. Don't assume.

[@MijoMontego]

Great points to think about! Thank you for this info as I compare/contrast my electric companies three plans they offer.

[@appletech9535]

Sounds like you’re with Teco in Florida. Lol this sounds exactly like my plan and I thought it was ridiculous.

[@mikej2872]

Thank you for the information on model 3. I made the jump and brought a used 2019 long range.

[@Lost_In_LA]

Finally the mystery of the jammed signal buttons has been solved! I tested on my M3P this morning and I was able to duplicate the jam as well as the unjam. I don't usually rest my finger on the buttons while my wife does which explains why it happened to much more with her. This should be a KZbin short video to get the message out to everyone. 🙌

[@bh4560]

I test drove an M3 and quickly realised to cancel you just tap the middle of the button. Actually really simple and effective

With around £120k invested in tech/TSLA stocks, any suggestions for additional stocks to diversify across various markets? Looking for a well-rounded portfolio that balances risk aversion with returns meeting yearly inflation concerns.

[@TinaMyles]

I guess it's important to reassess our investment strategies based on current market conditions. You should consider a market expert to guide you.

[@KentBrono]

Accurate asset allocation is crucial, and some individuals use hedging strategies or allocate part of their portfolio to defensive assets for market downturns. Expert guidance is vital for achieving this. This approach has helped me stay financially secure for over five years, yielding nearly $1 million in returns on investments.

[@YadaniL-g8k]

How can I reach this adviser of yours? because I'm seeking for a more effective investment approach on my portfolio.

[@KentBrono]

Finding financial advisors like Julianne Iwersen Niemann who can assist you shape your portfolio would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.

[@YadaniL-g8k]

Thanks for sharing, I just liquidated some of my funds to invest in the stock market, I will need every help I can get.

[@jamessagun]

Thank you for the stuck turn signal button explanation! I used to rest my fingers on the two buttons just so I could be prepared to push the signal whenever I needed. I did hypothesize and realize within the past week that keeping my fingers away from the buttons until I needed them prevented the issue. This helps explain why.

[@helper734]

I wish I knew this a whole lot earlier. All 6 Freezing steering wheel buttons. After 7 service visits with no solution until the Tesla App gave me instructions for proper usage. Keep your hands and fingers off any of the 6 buttons. I've never had the problem return. I've also had parts replaced not only the steering wheel ( which didn't solve the problem ). Just keep your hands away from the buttons.

[@birdsfan]

I switched to a TOU (time of use) plan with my utility. The super off peak between 12am and 6am is 4.5 cents per kilowatt. The peak rate between 2pm and 6pm is brutal but we don't use much energy during those times. The off peak which is all other times is only 6 cents per. This has worked really well for me. I'll run my pool filter, dishwasher charge my Tesla overnight for next to nothing 😅

[@franklandice]

Jeremiah…. So are you saying to charge each day of that week at 80% or only say charge sunday night and go all week and see if its below 50 then. My commute to and from work is total 20 miles round trip. Then say maybe of other than work maybe 30 miles if I do extra that day.

[@SanderHassel]

Great video with quality content as usually, thank you for sharing your experience and tips for us who follow! Are you using the Matt display protection or the HD one? And why would you recommend the one over the other?

[@sk8er4lifeez]

I had one in 2018 I put 184k miles it dropped 40 miles of range in a bit over 6 years and that many miles a full charge was giving me 270 and I used to charge to 90% everytime.

[@BurnseysRT]

I only have flat rate options. I locked in for $0.0619 per kW for 12 months. When you add in service and all other fees it’s about $0.12 per kW all year long.

[@ChrisDaubitz]

Great deal

[@_S3Media_]

For the turn signal getting stuck, another quick fix I found to work is instead of pressing the opposite signal… put your thumb under the plastic for the left signal and pull out a tiny bit and it should press in again.

[@deej628]

Jeremiah! What do you think about getting a 22 m3p 1 owner with 35k on it for 30k. Blue ext white int. Its either that or I wait for q4 incentives for a 24/25 m3lr dual motor, same color combo and referral credit with tax incentive and or state for an extra 2500 off. Thanks man. Love your content.

[@cellman1829]

Another awesome feature that is so easy yet so useful. Take seatbelt off and the car automatically goes into park. Freaking awesome. I love it on my refreshed M3 LR

[@jimstravels7903]

I don’t use my M3P as a daily so the whole turn signal getting stuck is infuriating. But did a long highway drive today and what you described about resting my thumb is exactly what I was doing 🤯.

[@TCTheGreat]

That turn signal thing!!!! That explains it, cuz i noticed only have that issue when i'm on the highway. I thought it was the speed i was going must have triggered something in the software. But this explains it, must have been my hand.

[@FascinatingFellow]

The behavior you are seeing with the capacitive switches may just be a result of the way that technology works. There is always some level of capacitance in the environment, which can vary, so the sensor needs to measure and adjust for it. The sensor determines that the button is pushed when it detects a sudden increase in the capacitance that is above this environmental baseline by some triggering amount for some period of time. By leaving your thumb/hand over the sensor for 45 seconds or whatever they've set the sensor environmental recalibration interval to, the sensor takes that level of capacitance to be the new environmental level, so you would need even more capacitance than that to trigger the sensor going forward. When you move your thumb/hand away from the sensor for a few seconds the sensor notices a new lower environmental capacitance value and readjusts to that, so the button will again trigger when your thumb/hand is present. The solution is, as you noted, don't rest your thumb/hand on the capacitive switches. And if you do, then move your thumb/hand away from the switch for long enough for it to have noticed the lower baseline capacitance and recalibrated to it.

[@gvmd-jr8bs]

Thank you so much for the explanation of the turn signal button time out. We traded our 2020 M3 LR for a 2024 M3 LR almost two months ago. On almost every drive I’ve had at least one instance of not being able to activate a turn signal when I needed to. I was considering taking the car in for service. Now, it sounds like the solution is simply not resting my thumb directly on either button. I agree that this timeout is stupid. However it’s not nearly as stupid as having eliminated the turn signal stalk itself. The fact that the buttons move as you turn the wheel (e.g., while setting up for an upcoming turn) often leaves them upside down and on the other side of the steering column just as you want to activate a signal. This leaves you performing a distracting search just when your attention should be elsewhere. The stalks were always where you expected them to be, allowing their use to be subconscious and second nature. This was a very poor and unsafe design choice and is the only thing I don’t like about the new M3.

[@SmoothbassmanStudios]

I hate that the new MX is stalkless. I don't like the buttons at all. I wish there was an option to choose.

[@MrZimmmy]

Hey JJ, I'm new to your site and enjoyed your commentary on turn signals among other T3 & Y issues. I'm in the market for the Juniper in the coming weeks when it’s released in CA. I understand Tesla’s decision to eliminate costs from the manufacturing process but why must Elon eliminate turn signals in the first place?? What's next? Has Elon ever polled his customers to assess their opinions on the major cost reduction processes he makes that impact the driving experience? I've been driving ICE automobiles for about 60 years but am thrilled with EV-powered cars. They are efficient, powerful and environmentally friendly! The EVs get my thumbs-up 👍 but I want my opinion to be heard about the new driving experience from the POV of a senior!

[@liam1902]

CA as in California? If so, I'm very certain it's not coming out in the US anytime this year. Best case scenario would be early 2025 or worse case scenarios would be Summer 2025/late 2025 for the United States.

[@ChrisDaubitz]

I have Texas Tesla energy, $0.50 a day free nights 10pm-6am. Home rate is $0.109 plus the free nights charging does not get charged the energy delivery fee from Oncore. Great deal if you commute!

[@jacobheinz8236]

Jeremiah do you think the range unlock for $1,600 is worth it with a LR Rear wheel drive model Y? I have an old model s and my range sucks and I want to get into a Y, I was thinking of AWD but now I’m thinking max range.

[@PotatoPatato]

The turn signal discussion is fascinating! I don’t think tesla knows about this or they would add it to their manual. You should definitely email them. Or the NHTSA and have them update their instruction manual.

Every time someone shows the stupid turn signal buttons, I count my blessings that the Model Y still had the stalks when I bought mine. That would have driven me crazy. I also think them planning to remove them from the Model Y in the refresh is just plain dumb, it's not going to win anyone over. Especially now that the 2025 Ioniq 5 has the NACS port, and after rebates, its basically the same price as a Model Y LR, and youll have stalks, and you have car play\android auto...

[@springroll58]

great info, thank you!

[@joshuarosen465]

There is almost never a reason to charge to 100%, Superchargers are plentiful. I keep my car at 65% during the week and charge to 80% for my weekly roadtrips. I only charge to 90% if that's enough to do the roundtrip without charging.

Question! So does that mean the 2024 Model 3 LR RW we charge to 100% or weekly to 80%

As someone who uhh knows a friend yeah a friend who works there, he and or she possibly may have mentioned that, wait what did she say? Oh yeah that they build em differently depending on the shift and quality gets incentives to not call out mistakes for the sake of numbers because the higher ups just want that end of the year delivery bonus. But that's just what my neighbor said, maybe, possibly.

[@Jst4vdeos]

My turn signal buttons absolutely click. They may be capacitive, but there is a clicking action to them. I think a lot of people and they think of capacitive, they think of no moving parts, but there is a moving part, even if it’s just for the force feedback.

[@JremiahJones]

Small movement is very normal for capacitive buttons. It helps the illusion.

[@Specialist7]

Believe it a lot of the modern macbooks are like that, they are capacitive and give you a force feedback to simulate clicking so there's no actual "pressing" down its just vibrating.

[@Jst4vdeos]

@@Specialist7 I can literally see it moving, unlike the MacBook touchpad. It’s not a flex or an illusion the button literally depresses and clicks.

[@Specialist7]

[@metsr18rhq]

I don't understand why Tesla didn't put the left turn signal on the left side of the steering wheel and the right signal on the right side of the steering wheel. This way your left and right hands are near the buttons and easily clickable with your thumbs. Having them on top of one another is silly.

[@jay.rsingh2530]

That could work. Although im used to it and dont even have to look. My model 3 also has physical buttons tho, its not a touch button

[@stevekindo7604]

[@MijoMontego]

Thanks for the Autopilot lane change tips. As a non-FSD driver, the inability to change lanes on Autopilot was driving me nuts. I'll have to look at my settings and give your tips a try the next time I'm out.

[@chuckz28]

I didnt even know people had this issue because I've always had double pull selected. 80% of the time I only use cruise control without autosteer. I've always been able to lane change when using autosteer with the turn signal and only turning off autosteer without losing cruise control. This is another reason why FSD was a no go for me because I only use cruise control most of the time and with FSD you can't use it by itself at all that I've found.

​​@@JremiahJonesanother mistake. Teslas have lg and pano batteries along with lfp. That means nmc and nca. You said 30-50 least amount stress. Not true again tesla reduces power dramatically down low so no extra stress. Going to even 0% will have no stress or any other implications. If you need 30-40% to commute charge to 55% with pano, 60% with lg and around 70% with LFP
